I guess you didnt like my suggestions...
The cheapest Carpenter kit is $4,600...
Im sure you can get someone to take your $3000 and hook your motor up for you!!!
Good Luck !!!

What do you use the bike for? Do you race it at the track, just cruise on it, or what?

Then I wouldn't worry too much about giving it more power than it has already. Maybe some custom wheels and/or paint?

youd be better off picking up a used 14 and keeping the 12 as is.

At 1394cc the APE kit makes your ZX12 nearly 50 cc larger than the a new factory ZX14. This kit consist of 86mm forged pistons with a cylinder block bored and re plated to fit, a 60 mm fully nitrided and race-balanced stroker crankshaft, and Carrillo rods. This kit will provide awesome power and torque increases. Requires customers stock cylinder block and crankshaft with the order.

What about a nice head port, valves, springs and cams? Probably good for about 15 horses.
